Summary
A new platform uses digital virtual patients for health professions education. This FHIR-based system enhances case-based learning and integrates apps, proving successful in university trials.
Area of Science:
- Health professions education
- Medical informatics
- Digital health
Background:
- Traditional case-based instruction methods can be limited.
- Need for interactive and technologically advanced learning tools in health professions.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and evaluate a FHIR-based platform for case-based instruction.
- To enhance learning experiences for health professions students through digital tools.
Main Methods:
- Development of a FHIR-based platform with a non-technical authoring tool.
- Implementation of digital virtual patients for individual and team learning.
- Integration of SMART Apps via a simulated Electronic Medical Record (EMR).
Main Results:
- Successful field testing of the platform.
- Positive outcomes from trials at the University of Queensland.
- Adoption of the platform by the University of Melbourne.
Conclusions:
- The FHIR-based platform effectively supports case-based learning for health professions students.
- The system's features facilitate interactive and integrated educational experiences.
- The platform demonstrates scalability and successful adoption in academic settings.

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Secondary healthcare is offered by a specialist, generally in hospitals or clinics for patients referred by primary healthcare providers. It occurs when a person has an illness or injury that requires specific medical care. Secondary care is often referred to as acute care. Secondary care can range from uncomplicated care to repair a minor laceration or treat a strep throat infection to more complicated emergent care, such as treating a head injury sustained in an automobile accident. Whatever...

Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care...
